Hey it's all about virus!!?

My PC has caught a kind of spyware or virus named w32.myzor.fk@yf which facilates in stealing passwords and destroying system. I am very much worried about it. Can you please please please help me to remove this spyware virus. I searched a lot of websites for downloading free softwares for removing spyware but it could only be freely scanned. Do you know any sites where I can download a free software which functions both in scanning and removing Spyware. HELP PLEASE??



Hey it's all about virus!!?internet



most virus are spread through IE. IE is not a safe browser. you should use a more secure browser to protect your PC from virus.



i recommand you to use firefox with Google toolbar. firefox can block any any popup and disable any virus and adware, spyware on webpage, so, firefox is much safer than IE browser. as you know, most of virus spread throught internet and webpage.



besides, firefox is much smaller than IE, so it run faster than IE.



download firefox for free, Just have a try:

Also, when I try to move the toolbars on my task bar, it wont let me. I dont have it locked or anything.



What happend to my task bar? It doesnt show my windows!!!?spyware remover



Sounds like it's ''hiding''.



To hide the taskbar:



Right-click the Start button, and then click Properties.



On the Taskbar tab, select the Auto-hide the taskbar check box.



To redisplay the taskbar, point to the area of your screen where the taskbar is located.



You can temporarily hide the taskbar by dragging the top edge down. To redisplay the taskbar, drag the visible edge upward.



What happend to my task bar? It doesnt show my windows!!!?virus removal



click the task bar and drag it down to the bottom of the screen.



then, shorten the task bar by click and pulling it down to the bottom.



you could also use keyboard combination alt tab to move between programs

Software: any thing more to add?

i have avg free, and avg anti-spyware, any more software needed to protect my pc?



Software: any thing more to add?stinger



nortons, and 'remove-it pro'.



Most of the viruses are made by nortons, so get it.



Software: any thing more to add?virus scanner



1. Do All Windows Updates daily. This is the most important Windows security tip.



2. One, and only ONE, Anti-virus. AVG Free is good.



3. One, and only ONE, software Firewall (if you don't have a hardware router). Zone Alarm is good.



4. Spybot Search %26 Destroy, AdAware 2007, Windows Defender and Spyware Blaster. No one Anti-spyware catches everything.



5. Update each program's malware ''definition files'' and run the SCANS Daily.



TIP: All are free, just google for them.
can't hurt to add another anti-spyware like spybot search and destroy and maybe CClean...also a basic firewall like Zone Alarm...all free

This application has failed to start because RICHED20.dll was not found.?

This message pops up when i install/uninstall some (not all) prograns. Programs include Nortons antivirus (the att free version), PC TOOLS spyware doctor (google pack version). These programs ron but wont open. They ate on the task bar and in program files: but not in the ad and remove programs list. Where do I get this file and where do I put it???



This application has failed to start because RICHED20.dll was not found.?suzuki



Its missing, so download it, and chuck it back into C:\windows\system32



This application has failed to start because RICHED20.dll was not found.?virus



You can download this file from http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/dll-fi...



After downloading, copy the file to c:\windows\system32\



If asked to replace or keep the existing file (in the event it exists but has become corrupt), rename the original file to riched20_old.dll and then copy the new file.



As a note, some of the icons that appear in your taskbar may also be associated with services, and cannot be uninstalled using Add/Remove Programs.

    As said above CCleaner is the best and its good for getting rid of temporary files. But it is probably a virus or several viruses so scan your computer and think about what you have installed recently could it be a Trojan?

    Should I keep this? It uses McAfee, but many have told me that it isn't all that great. Can anyone recommend a better, free anti-virus/adware/spyware scanner that doesn't take up a lot of space?

    Better to use AVG or Avast. Both are free and don't hog resources like McAfee and Norton.

    Hello i am asking for your help some one is hacking in to my brothers computer how can i fix this?

    i have put a fire wall on his computer zone alarm free and avg anti spyware and anti virus but i cant connect to the net because the hacker is stoping him but it works fine on my computer because i have a fully updated but my brother just got owned can yous help me how can i find out who this is and get them back and best of all how can i stop them from hacking my brother I'm getting a hub so it goes threw my fire wall 1st also tell me if that will work but in the mean time how can i make it so my brother can use his Internet?



    Hello i am asking for your help some one is hacking in to my brothers computer how can i fix this?triumph



    It sounds like a trojan or major virus of some kind, shut off or restart the computer, unplug from internet after making sure the latest updates are install for virus, etc. Then do a scan offline and see if it it finds the trojan.



    Hello i am asking for your help some one is hacking in to my brothers computer how can i fix this?worms



    Firstly, I doubt it is a hacker, unless your brother has some interesting information on his computer, more likely it is a newer virus, I would get an upgraded virus registry for my virus detection software, via, your other computer and jump drive it over.



    After you have the file on the jump drive, you find your old file and replace it manually. After that run a virus scan, I hope this helps you fix your problem.
    change your ip or format your pc or buy a new one
    change isp's, use a router, try different operating system like linux, use secure passwords, add several more firewalls, if that fails either reformat computer and add all updates or disconnect computer from the internet ie turn it off.

    Best small antivirus program for dial-up users?

    i need something thats good, that wont take so long to download like norton or mcafee...



    i also want it to be free..and maybe include spyware/adware/malware protection??



    also, i tried to download AVG antivirus, but it said the download was corrupted?



    thankyou for your answers in advance!



    -Bri



    Best small antivirus program for dial-up users?trojan



    It makes no difference if you are on dial-up or broadband as to your security software. You don't have to download the program, you can purchase them from a store like best buy or amazon.. which is better anyways because then you have the actual disk incase you need to reinstall or incase you want to run the command line scanner.



    If you are going to go with freeware you will not be protected.. that's the bottom line.



    Freeware doesn't provide real-time protection nor do they provide timely updates (if at all) .. both of which are vital. By the time you run a manual scan you are infected... so you may as well not even bother installing the freeware.



    McAfee takes no more time to load than anything else if it is properly configured. You do not have to install ALL of the add-on features. You can even turn off the splash screen.



    If your computer is so incredibly slow that it's taking a long time to load then you should look at the CPU speed and amount of RAM you have and see if you can upgrade.

    Can you help me please , Bo:heap problem??

    Please , I get a antivirus alert from Mcafee Antivirus , It's Bo:heap , buffer over flow , the infected file is iexplore.exe ,

    but after all of that , I still find the same alert bo:heap , also I noticed that some popup (adult finder , and sex websites) appears , Also , when I close my computer I find a message saying that a dll file is not there , and something like that ,



    Can you help me please ??



    Any advices??



    Thanks a lot ,



    Can you help me please , Bo:heap problem??vincent



    Did you disconnect from the internet and reboot in safe mode when you ran your anti-spyware? If not, do it. Some trojans hide out in areas of the system that are protected when the computer is in normal mode.



    Once all of your scans are done and you've gotten rid of the infections found, reboot in normal mode and connect to the internet. Then see if you get the same message when you run IE.

    Anti-virus programs (use only 1):



    AOL Active Virus Shield powered by Kaspersky is currently the best free anti-virus (99% detection rate). The most popular free anti virus programs are AVG Free and Avast which are recommended above Norton and McAfee. Norton is notoriously bloated and takes forever to perform full systems scans. If you want to pay for an anti-virus NOD32 is highly recommended. You can download AOL Active Virus Shield, AVG or Avast from the links below. There is absolutely no spyware and they are completely free.

    Most likely the infection is all but gone if you have used the above listed utilities and won't cause you any more harm. If the folder is your main concern use this file/folder unlocking tool. http://www.majorgeeks.com/Unlocker_d4660...



    This will unlock the file/folder and allow you to delete it. Just install this program, then right click the folder and use Unlocker to release the file from whatever is keeping it from being deleted normally, then follow the prompts and you should be able to remove it. But honestly the malware is probably disabled this is just the residual leftover folder with a few hanging dlls. I would also suggest you go to www.download.com and get Spyware Doctor Starter Edition which is completely free and the best malware remover you can buy or free. Scan you pc with this after you have removed the folder just to make sure you are clean.

    You are getting viruses because of this websites you're visiting! ALSO! Your virus program is ONLY as good as the most recent updates. Seeing as there's over 500 new viruses created everyday, and you MAYBE only update once a week, it is inevitable that you will get a virus.... Especially since you go on the internet every day of your life.



    Norton handles the viruses that DO come in the best. Quarantines them and then REMOVES PERMISSIONS to those quarantines so nothing can be executed. Some other virus programs (like AVG...) quarantine the file by moving it to an isolated folder on the hard drive... that's it.



    Norton also has the option for Virus scan on boot up which allows you to scan and remove the viruses that CAN'T be removed while windows is actually running... Why? When windows is running... the virus files are in use and NO Anti-Virus program will be able to get rid of them.



    Two Options:



    #1 - Remove the hard drive, hook it up to another PC and run a virus scanner on it and VOILA! Viruses are GONE!

    My problem is when I look up a page I'm most times redirected. How do I stop this?

    I use Mozilla Fire Fox and the free adware as my spyware detector.

    you might want to go to internet options under the Tools menu and delete delete all browsing history. You might also have a virus so a virus scan would be helpful
    Use some other software. Norton, AVG , Avast are free antivirus software. Spybot, Ewido are free spyware removers. You can download free softwares at http://fixit.in/antivirus.html and http://fixit.in/spywareremover.html

    Why dose windows on my toshiba laptop keep crashing?

    i have recently purchased a toshiba sattelite a105-s4334. the system is free of viruses and spyware and everything else. i have wiped my system and and re-instaled windows. that only helped. it only crashes if it has been on for a long time. it is not over heating i checked that. can some body please help me on what is wrong?



    Why dose windows on my toshiba laptop keep crashing?anti virus



    Hi. Looks like a good machine. When you say crash that usually means BSOD (Blue Screen Of Death). Is that the case? If you are using a valid copy of Windows XP then crashes should be rare. If you have a hardware conflict (rare) that might do it. Check the Task Manager and see if you have any suspicious processes running.



    Why dose windows on my toshiba laptop keep crashing?auto protect



    nice machine. if you just bought it and are having these types of problems I would definitely send it back for a refund asap and buy another. do this before you reach 90 days.
    I had a similar problem and someone referred me to a website where i got a lot of help from. check it out. it's www.educateyourselfcdroms.com. copy it and paste it on your url address bar.
    i think i have the same laptop, maybe its the account ur using. when i used another account that i newly made, my laptop stopped crashing. it could be that ur only scanning one account instead of every account in ur laptop. if ur laptop is still under warranty, now would be the time to use that.
    maybe you have too many windows

    Virus has disabled System Restore?

    A virus has disabled System Restore I think. I can't open up the Help Menu from the Start button to get to the System Restore Wizard. I've tried using Safe Mode but I'm not too familiar with it. I couldn't seem to do it from there either.



    I've already run all the free anti-virus %26 anti-spyware stuff to no avail. It's also shut down my Task Manager, Windows Media Player, and I think it may be what's caused my internet to go down as well. So I'm really in a bind. I can't download anything from the internet.



    Is there another way to get to System Restore or do you have any other suggestions? I'm going to end up reformatting but I need a solution in the meantime.



    Virus has disabled System Restore?antispyware



    this happened to me once. this is what i did: found out the name of the virus from the MCAFEE website. switched of the system restore found the virus in my computer. deleted it. restarted the computer. restarted system restore.



    easy and no need to reformat the system. try it out it works.

    ur pc is of poor quality huh.

    I've got some sort of virus that has stopped my windows media player from working and I can't get to my Task Manager. It have been messing up my explorer connection when I tried to log into Yahoo mail.



    So I got a bunch of free anti virus/anti spyware programs and ran them. None of those did anything. Now, all of the sudden I can't get to the internet via my computer (although I can still use Xbox live so I know the juices are flowing through the cable so to speak). It says I have ''Limited or no connectivity'' or something like that. Right now I'm using my computer at work.



    Could this be the virus or could it be a firewall blocking the internet connection entirely or what? Any advice?



    Can a virus disconnect your internet?antivirus downloads



    Definitly, a virus can do anyhting from nothing to corrupt all your files on your system. I suggest AVG free edition. If it was a firewall, you need to go to the setting and change it to accpet sites and cookies of that sites,.

    Computer glitching and malware alarm??internet security software



    Sorry, but the stuff you are using and free stuff can't do a simple removal job...



    This is not a problem at all. Here's what you need to do.



    1st, don't waste your time with AVG, true sword, spybot, ad aware, CA, spyhunter, superantispyware, avast, panda, kaspersky, spyware blaster, bitdefender, spyware guard, windows defender or anything of the sort. Stay away from anything that is FREE when it comes to spyware and antivirus. There is a reason why they free. They are NOT good.



    2nd, You need some of the best software out there. Norton Systemworks is very good. That's the only good software from Norton. I wouldn't recommend Norton Internet security, its not that great. Now the best software you should get is Webroot AntiVirus With AntiSpyware %26 Firewall, formally known as Webroot's Spysweeper with Anti-virus, this software is too good and gets better everyday. This is Elite software. It blocks over 455,000 definition threats, which contain multiple fringerprints with each(you can do the math). No other software can compete with that or come close for that matter. It catches everything: viruses, spyware, adware, malware, root kits, keyloggers, trojans, worms, and anything else. It also has active shields and a Firewall which learns from your useage. I've used them all and it is 2nd to none.

    What's wrong with my computer?

    My computer goes real slow at times and then goes to normal speed. I've already scanned my computer with Avast! antivirus, Spyware Doctor, Spybot S%26D, SuperAntiSpyware, AVG Anti-Spyware, Ad-ware 2007 Free versions and they all found stuff on my computer, but the problem is still there.



    What's wrong with my computer?internet security



    This is not recommended but it works



    Start%26gt; right-click on My Computer%26gt;Properties %26gt;System Restore tab%26gt; Check the box that says turn off system restore.



    Now that you have done that... rescan with AVG etc. and clean up any crap on there.



    Restart your computer and go back and uncheck the box that turned off system restore.



    The reason to do it that way is because your system will automatically restore certain items you are deleting with your anti-virus/spyware removers. If system restore is off during the scan and removal it can't =)



    What's wrong with my computer?network security



    Your running to much - remove the following spyware doctor; AVG anti spyware; spybot S%26D; ad-aware.



    Then download:



    Spywareblaster:

    Download sypynomore and it will identify the registry entries made by the bug.



    Then goto: run/regedit and delete the entries that spynomore finds.



    Spynomore will find bugs that Norton, AVG and McAfee will not and when you delete them manually you dont have to pay.



    Just be carefull when you are doing a regedit.



    Make sure you are deleting the exact extension (registration entry) that the bug is in.

  • Ok I know this may seem like a silly question?

    I am curious to know what the difference is between buying a anti virus/ spyware and using a free one? Are there any benefits to the ones you buy versus the ones you get free? If so what? And which is the best? I saw Bit Fender in Wal Mart and thought about buying it but I need some reassurance a ''paid'' for one is any better..Thanks in advance and again excuse my ignorance, but I don't sit at a computer alot therefore, I don't know these things unless I ask:)



    Ok I know this may seem like a silly question?ktm



    You're going to get different responses depending on who answers the question. From my testing and my research, some paid antivirus programs can outperform the free ones, but the performance of some of the free ones is close enough to the paid programs that for the average user, it shouldn't make a difference.



    For example, if you trust in the results of the US magazine PC World,



    http://www.pcworld.com/article/id,130869...



    Kaspersky Antivirus offers the best protection, while not slowing your PC down very much, while BitDefender's protection was close to Kaspersky, but slowed your system a lot. Meanwhile, the paid versions of two of the free programs (AVAST! and AVG) are farther down the list, but still performed better than one of the better known AV programs they tested, Trend Micro.

    my grand-daughter has always had bullgard full security pack on her computer. About 6 weeks ago a box as a icon appeared on her desktop with the words xset up,exe.We did a full scan and 2 threats appeared on the scan which bullgard could not deal with so we sent a log to them to sort out. After many attempts later we were no better off as these threats kept showing up on the full scan. Last night I uninstalled bullgard and installed avg free antivirus and with her own windows firewall windows defender and norton spyware scan which comes free with btyahoo we did another scan with avg which picked up the above mentioned + a copy avg got rid of the first one and on a second scan we believe we got rid of the second one but the box is still on the desktop. How can we be sure we have got rid of all this. Hope all this makes sense.

    Download and install the program from the link below. Use it to scan your system. It will give you information of all processes running on your system. You can use this information to detect processes that are dangerous and disable them. You can also then use an antivirun to remove the processes or files manually.

    Try downloading (free) Ad-Aware SE Personal. This is antispyware rather than anti-virus and may well catch out anything that's left. Also try Ccleaner (free again) which is excellent at cleaning out cr*p.

    By the way, don't have two anti-virus progs running at the same time, they'll fight! AVG's excellent.

    By now the trojan will be in System Restore, so you have to switch that off. Go to Start - programs - accessories - system tools - system restore then follow the wizard to switch it off.



    You should then run Avast and Ewido in Safe Mode. To get into Safe Mode reboot and repeatedly press the F8 key after the bios screen loads but before Windows loads. You'll know if you made it because the screen will be at 800 x 600 and your pc will be slow.



    Let the programs run, then reboot and run your Ewido scan again to check if it worked.

    Safari web browser vs firefox?

    Is safari web browser as fast as firefox and safe and secure and spyware and ad-aware free like firefox?



    Safari web browser vs firefox?nortan antivirus



    Firefox is, in my opinion, the best browser. It is completely ad-ware and spyware free and is completely safe to download as long as it is from the Mozilla website.



    Currently, Safari is slightly faster at opening and running, HOWEVER Firefox 3 will be released in June, and promises to be significantly faster than any and all browsers that are out now.



    Still, I think that as long as your are not using Internet Explorer, you cant really go wrong.



    Hope it helps!



    Safari web browser vs firefox?nortonantivirus



    Yes, it is and it is better than Safari!
    if you use a mac then yes. But if your using windows stick to firefox until all the bugs on safari are fixed.

    Why is my computer so laggy?norten



    If your virus/spyware free, there are a couple things you can do get your computer working faster. If you using your computer for normal stuff and not gaming. You don't always need more RAM you just need to perform a few maintenance task.



    First, if you haven't cleaned your registry in a while. This is necessary. Your registry holds all the information regarding updates, installs, un-installs etc. Each one of those events produces a key. That key needs your PC's resources and free space. So, if you clean your registry, you make more resources available for speed. Do a registry scan if you got more than 20 errors you should clean it.

    Sluggish Startup.?

    I've noticed my laptop is running a little sluggish at moments, and when I startup it could take almost 10 minutes for it to finally be ready for me to use. I have Norton Anti-Virus, AVG Anti-Spyware and a memory free up program. My computer has no bugs or viruses(at least from what Norton can see), and I just cleaned up my hard drive and defragmented it. Are there any programs out there that could give my computer the jolt it needs? I have the resources to take it to a shop but I'd like to try my hand at it first, if possible.



    *FYI* My desktop's hard drive broke so I'm now using my laptop for my primary computer needs, which is why I'm even stressing this in the first place.

    Why does my computer turn off whenever i use my antivirus or antispyware software?

    i am currently using ''avg 7.5'' anti virus software and ''spybot s%26d'' anti spyware software. (both were free if it matters)



    Why does my computer turn off whenever i use my antivirus or antispyware software?norton 2008



    Does it send a message letting you know you machine is getting ready to shut off or does it do it automatically? Sometimes you computer will ''prompt'' you to either shut your computer down, or it will let you know it's going to shut it down for you after doing a scan. This is normal. However, if it doesn't prompt you or if it's shutting down during mid process, there might be other problems.



    It shouldn't shut your computer off, at least without prompting you. You might want to watch out for these ''free'' s/w downloads of antivirus/spyware software. Some advertisements, as such, can actually carry malicious code that will damage your hard drive. If it's within you means to by antivirus s/w from McAfee or another well know product, I would buy that instead and do a clean run to see what is actually causing this problem... or if it is virus related.



    Why does my computer turn off whenever i use my antivirus or antispyware software?pop up blocker



    u take one ok
    there might be virus in ur system ... or the ram speed would be slow ...
    If you've just recently downloaded a new program in to your computer that maybe the problem. Sometimes new programs are incompatible with other software that is already on your computer. I've had this problem before. The best thing to do is to try removing any new software and see what happens the next time you use your anti virus or antispyware software. If your computer stays on then you've solved the problem...if not I would try removing another program.
    if it turns off after a scan its a onfiguratio9n setting in avg properties,if it shuts off when you initialize the app its probably a registry problem.
    uninstall antivirus, use regclean to perform a scan and fix it then install back the av.

    Which software for computer security shud i remove?

    i have norton antivirus, spybot- search n destroy, spyware terminaator and avg free addition. having all of them will surely slow my system down. which do u think i shud remove?



    Which software for computer security shud i remove?norton antivirus 2007



    Remove Norton and keep the rest. Make sure to keep your security software updated and active. Never use more than one anti-virus or firewall, as it can cause driver conflicts. You also need a firewall - either activate the Windows firewall (if you have Windows XP / Vista), or get the free Comodo Personal Firewall from http://personalfirewall.comodo.com/



    You will need the Norton Removal Tool by Symantec to get rid of Norton -



    http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT/tsg...



    :)



    Which software for computer security shud i remove?product key



    Norton and avg are both good antivirus, only thing is, norton slows your system down quie a bit compared to AVG.



    if you have paid for norton then uninstal AVG, if you have the free trial of norton but have not yet paid for it then uninstall norton. never have more than on antivirus on your computer.



    as far as spyware detection programs go, the more the merrier, only have one of the programs running full time as too many running will take up too much system resources.



    fire up the other antispyware programs one a month, do your scans with them and put them back to bed when finnished.
    It seems that you have 2 anti-VIrus and 2 anti-Spyware programs.



    Remove one of the Anti-Virus, Norton's is better than AVG but it is your call. Having 2 anti-virus programs running at the same time will cause them to interfere with each other.



    Having 2 anti-spyware at the same time is alright I'd just make one active and have the other scan only on manual. Of the 2 you mention Spybot is the better.
    remove the norton and keep avg or better yet get rid of both



    and get avast www.avast.com and free firewall www.comodo.com

    if any virus will come to your computer then these software will not protect your computer they can just limit the dangers of tha virus. So scan before downloading any file from internet.

    Picasa is free and has no viruses or spyware bundled. It is made by Google. It works very well.

    Legal file sharing software??

    is there any legal file sharing software that i can download, that has to be paid for, that will allow me to burn them onto a disc or send them to my iTunes? also, one that is spyware adware and trojan free?



    Legal file sharing software??nortonantivirus



    Limewire and other file sharing software is legal. Using it to upload or download copyright protected media - music, videos, images, software - without the copyright holder's consent is illegal because it is theft.



    If the artist is not getting paid it is not legal. Stick to the safe and legal method of downloading music through iTunes.



    Legal file sharing software??spyware



    Yes, Limewire is totally legal, but using it to pirate media is illegal.



    So don't search for copyrighted titles, download them, and drag them into your iTunes library because that is stealing and Jesus will cry. Give your $$$ to Steve Jobs and the record companies so they won't have to live on the streets.

    what diagnostic program? - CHeck for spyware and virues



    good spyware utility Spybot Search and Destroy (be sure its by www.safer-networking.org the reset is likely spyware its self.



    if its a legitimate diagnostic program trust it. if its not a spyware/virus problem its very likely hardware. without hardware to swap in and out to test it all you have to trust is the diagnostic. also, carefully re-seat the memory sticks and video card (if youve never been inside a computer then leave the CPU alone.)

    From 'Kelly's Tweaks', you need to edit and/or add the following registry keys:



    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\...



    ''DisableTaskMgr''=dword:00000000



    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\... Policy Objects\LocalUser\Software\Microsoft\Win...

    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft... NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon]



    ''DisableCAD''=dword:00000000,



    Also, from same website:



    Taskmgr.exe should be listed in the %SystemRoot%\system32 directory. If you cannot find the file, you can extract it from the Windows XP CD. To do so, you can perform the following steps:



    a. Insert your Windows XP CD into your CD-ROM.



    b. Click Start, Run, type cmd and press Enter.



    c. At the Command Prompt mode, type the following command:

    you should start it out on the treadmill then gradually increase the speed. Over time it will get faster.
    Services You Can Disable



    There are quite a few services you can disable from starting automatically.



    This would be to speed up your boot time and free resources.

    The Geek Squad is useless. You can get a whole new PC for 300 bucks. Just buy Kaspersky, Norton or Nod32 and also get spybot from spybot.com - it's a free tool, wipes out and immunizes your PC from lots of threats.

    It should be enough protection against spyware. But as a necessary precaution you should regularly delete all temp files collected by the browser at the end of each browsing session. By using the Tools %26gt; Internet options %26gt; Delete temp files and cookies menu in IE, or



    Tools %26gt; options %26gt; privacy %26gt; Clear now button in firefox



    alternately you can use a separate program like ccleaner for it



    I have spybot and windows defender installed on my computer. Do you think it is sufficient security?virus protection



    No. I would recommend you get this program called SuperAntiSpy from http://download.com It's the only program out of many that was able to successfully get rid of a specific adware program that was nearly crippling my computer. Also, if you can afford it, you may want to get an antivirus program.
    Absolutely not



    Go now and install the AVG Free 7.5 --- it is a resident virus scanner and it is made to be the primary go-to dude on any Windows system--- has daily updates---scans the incoming Email --- the works --- and as far as I'm concerned here--- it is essential ---- do not delay--- click on the link I have provided here--- when you arrive on the site--- tap in the name AVG Free into the search box there and the site will deliver you to your new software download --- install this dog and relax --- you are going to be in superb hands with this one !!!!!
